AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Late Roman / Early Byzantine Bronze Ring with Fluted Spherical Bezel – 4th to 7th Century AD
A distinctive bronze ring featuring a circular hoop, pronounced shoulders and a raised spherical bezel decorated with deep radiating flutes, creating a ribbed or melon-like appearance. Small rounded projections at the shoulders add to the sculptural profile of the piece. The surface preserves a dark archaeological patina with lighter mineral deposits and age-related wear, while the overall form and decorative treatment are more consistent with Late Roman to Early Byzantine jewellery traditions than with later medieval rings.
Material: Bronze
Dimensions: 3.0 x 2.1 cm
Weight: 6.22 gr
Provenance: Acquired in Germany at an Auction House.
